Compound a (c11h16o) has a band in the ir spectrum at 3450 cm–1 (strong, broad) and does not react with pyridinium chlorochromate (pcc) in ch2cl2. compound a does react with hbr to give compound b (c11h15br). compound b reacts with potassium t-butoxide to give compound c (c11h14). ozonolysis of c followed by treatment with zn and water gives ch3cho and compound d (c9h10o). the proton nmr spectrum of compound d is given below. treatment of compound d with ethyl magnesium bromide yields a. draw the structures of compounds a, b, c, and d. 1h nmr of d: δ 8.1–7.5, multiplet, 5h; 2.85, quartet, 2h; 1.30, triplet, 3h.

Amines are good nucleophiles, even though they are neutral molecules. how would the rate of an sn2 reaction between an amine and an alkyl halide be affected if the polarity of the solvent is increased? amines are good nucleophiles, even though they are neutral molecules. how would the rate of an reaction between an amine and an alkyl halide be affected if the polarity of the solvent is increased? because both reactants in the rate-limiting step are neutral, the reaction will be faster if the polarity of the solvent is increased. because both reactants in the rate-limiting step are neutral, the reaction will be slower if the polarity of the solvent is increased. because both reactants in the rate-limiting step are neutral, the reaction will occur at the same rate if the polarity of the solvent is increased. request answer
